Shopping

Sigh. I saw the perfect mustard yellow cardigan online. I stalled about buying it because I hate buying things online (or buying things in general) and now it is out of stock. Does anyone else hate shopping? I have a horrible collection of socks with holes in them and socks that sag down into my boots, but I still never buy new socks. The last times I bought new socks, one pair immediately sagged, and the other pair developed holes after only a few wears. I figure, what's the point?

First Crocus

I saw a little yellow crocus on an "adventure" run today with the team. It's the first crocus of spring! Huzzah! I didn't get a picture (since I don't manage a jogging photography club) but I will attempt to use a photo from freestockphotos.com.




Yesterday we did time trials. I ran the 800 and the 1600 by myself while the team was resting. I forgot that when you haven't done any speedwork in a long time your arms tingle when attempting it. I also forgot that you cough. I mentioned this at my book club last night and one of the ladies told me that when you get old you cough like that just from going up the stairs!

I suppose I should make dinner now. I am making this:



My changes are that I used less peanut butter (half a cup) and I added some sweet chili sauce. Also I shaved some raw carrot on top. Yummy! You can find the recipe on my friend Sara's blog.
